Chapter 331 Talk with the cannon first!

Bulls, Henry Hill, south of Henan, on the artillery position of the American Imperial Army.

"Blue Flag! It's gone!"

“Adjust the angle!”

“Adjust the angle!”

There was an observer at the top of Mount Henry. He raised a small blue flag and then, Jiang Yun, who was in the artillery position, made his own flag language. When the flag language was seen by the imperial artillery soldiers, they all shouted.

Is this...can you say that communication is basically based on shouting?

Not really, in fact, every gunman is calling for his subordinates, and he must use it, because the artillery now has a lot of cotton stuffed into his ears!

The artillery was too loud and there were too many, and the artillery soldiers had problems with their hearing.

"A collective test shot!" The flag verb came out again, followed by another shout.

"put!"

"put!"

With the wave of the flag, 200 cannons spewed out flames almost at the same time!

Boom! Boom!...

The flames and the flying shells were not felt by these artillery soldiers, but at this time, the 200 cannons opened fire at the same time, and the momentum was definitely a shock to the whole field!

It was so thrilling, so thrilling... it was really shocked, and the imperial artillery soldiers were shocked and sat on the ground!

Not prepared, no one has tried so many cannons to fire together. Although His Majesty the Emperor said before, he must let the cannons flow out a considerable distance, but he didn't say what the distance was... Li Mengyang didn't know either.

As the commander of the Imperial Artillery Division... Well, this is the artillery division. It used to be an artillery regiment. But now there are so many artillery. Can't you still call them a regiment, right?

He was promoted and became a division, but... this name is very bad. Li Mengyang thought of another name, which is the first artillery unit... Anyway, it cannot be called the third artillery unit, and the second artillery, this, the last artillery is too ugly, so Li Mengyang suggested that he just call the artillery unit.

Don't pay much attention to these details for the time being. His name is too bad. The key is that the artillery has been independent and can be developed specifically.

But now the teacher commander, he also sat on the ground!

"Fuck! This is so awesome! It shocked me to death!" Jiang Yun spoke loudly because he couldn't hear it now.

"Comrade Commander! We..." A deputy next to him pointed at a large area of ​​comrades sitting on the artillery position.

"Oh! So stupid! I've said it before! Open your mouth! Open your mouth!" Some soldiers were shocked and their ears were bleeding. Jiang Yun was on-site instructing.

"yes-private!" No matter what, artillery soldiers nowadays cannot lose their chains.

"Get up! Get up! Get ready to continue launching!"

"Has you hit it?"

Some gunners pulled their own people, while others asked for the results.

red flag!

The observer on the top of the mountain told his comrades that they all hit!

"Oh rooster!"

Even though there was blood in my ears, the artillery gate cheered!

In fact, that's right. How can there be such a thing as "collective test shot". The imperial army has been stationed in Henry Mountain for several months, and Jiang Yun has been here long ago. He has calculated all the targets long ago. He only needs a test shot to basically know a rough idea. So, just now, he was going to have a full-strength strike.

But however, the artillery soldiers were hit by the opponent and they were hit. They really had no experience. This is called 200 cannons!

These cannons were naturally transported to the front line in the past few months. The Eastern Army did not marching with so many cannons before. So it seems that His Majesty the Emperor has been slow to attack and seems to be waiting for these cannons to come in place.

Therefore, as the glorious imperial artillery and as the glorious artillery commander, Jiang Yun decided to face difficulties and head forward!

"Comrades! We must fire up the cannons! Good luck! For the Empire! For His Majesty the Emperor! **!"

Just this speech is really a motivational spirit, but fortunately, the emperor Li Mengyang is not here...

“all-hail-lee!”

The artillery roared, and then began the next round of loading, hanging lines, and pulling lines...

Boom! Boom! Boom...

"Oh my Zhenwu Emperor!"

Wufeng, who was in the trenches of the Henry Mount Imperial Army position, was holding a telescope in one hand and a palm in the other. Taoist people probably could see clearly that this was a respect for a certain Taoist king.

Wu Feng was shocked by the scene in front of him. The telescope clearly showed the scene of the enemy positions opposite. It was so miserable!

The bullets of the shell must be invisible, but the explosion can be seen, the explosions are in pieces, the rising black clouds, and the explosions are blown away... Oh no, many of them are all humans, not only the broken arms and limbs, but many of them are thrown into the sky!

The scene of the shelling was really shocking. Anyone who saw it would jump around with the sound of cannons.

"This is like plowing the ground!"

"Long live your Majesty!"

"..." On the left wing of the old Taoist Wufeng, it is now the position of Song Yulong's trio. They are also looking at the opposite side, but none of them use telescopes, and they are actually not far away.

You can see clearly without a telescope. That big mountain is like it is about to be turned over by an imperial shell. It is really spectacular!

At this time, the Imperial Army's firepower was too fierce. Yang Willie kept looking at him and didn't speak, but his mind was not idle.

"Your Majesty is trying to destroy the opponent with the power of thunder!" Yang Weili was speculating on the emperor's thoughts, and the scene in front of him actually represented a way of playing.

If we don’t talk about the war in China, just look at "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". It’s really a lot of strange strategies. War is one aspect, but wisdom is the key to the battlefield. Although "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is a novel, not a historical work, this novel represents our Chinese understanding of war.

It’s war. You need to understand the brain and make strange tricks. Sun Tzu’s art of war is said to win with righteousness. Strangeness means this. In fact, this represents a kind of war thinking, and it also represents a war model!

This is the model of war between us Chinese. We compete for strength but also for wisdom, and it is often more important to wisdom.

But now, the situation in front of you is completely different.

The battlefield situation at this time is the war mode of the Westerners!

Willie Yang received education in the UK, and his military knowledge also came from the UK. So he knew Western military theories, that is, to fight for the front.

Based on strength and strength as the key, everyone just cuts each other, just see who is powerful, at most they play a crescent formation, which is Hannibal's method, and that's it.

That is to say, at this time, His Majesty the Emperor of the American Empire was using the Western war model to conquer a Western country!

This was not the case in previous wars. Of course, this is Yang Weili’s personal opinion, and some individuals don’t care about this at all.

"Your Majesty! When will we attack?" Ocassi followed Li Mengyang, and they were on the right wing.

Normally, it seems that the Supreme Commander should be in charge of the central army, but the current situation is a bit special. Ocassi's previous vanguard troops were led, while 5,000 casualties in the Vicksburg vanguard troops were the worst, and nearly half of the number of troops were reduced. At this time, it would be a bit too much to use Ocassi's vanguard troops to seize the loyal army.

It is still wartime, so don’t change each other’s unity for the time being, because it is easy to cause problems when changing. This is the case for the time being, and then straighten out the relationship later. Therefore, Okashi’s army will be on the right wing first and go a little further.

Of course, the soldiers complained so much that everyone wanted to charge and felt that it was not a problem to reduce personnel... So Li Mengyang followed everyone to calm the soldiers' emotions.

But now, Ocassi is still anxious, so how can Li Mengyang not know?

"Today, on January 28, 1869, we will carry out the first round of strikes on the enemy positions outside Washington, DC! One hour, one hour after shelling, it is the time to charge!" Li Mengyang smiled and gave the answer.

"yes-tempt r-majesty!" Ocassi saluted, but at this moment, the United States position on the opposite side changed.

"God!"

"Don't fire."

"We, we..."

Many soldiers of the United States rushed out of the trenches and ran towards the imperial position!

Obviously, these people were blown up and couldn't hold on. They wanted to surrender, but...

Bang bang bang bang...

There are people in the United States who are implementing battlefield discipline.

Although the scene was spectacular at this time, you should know that the United States Army's position area was very large. In fact, Grant's fortifications covered the 25-mile area between the Bull River and Washington, so the position was actually very spectacular.

It is impossible for the Imperial Army's 200 artillery to fully cover the opponent's positions, so this situation occurs. But can this battlefield discipline work?

"Don't worry! Run!"

"I heard that the Empire treats prisoners preferentially!"

"Brothers! You can only die here!"

More people are running!

"Tell the artillery troops that firepower will be extended and hit the back!"

“yes-tempt r-majesty!”

Li Mengyang issued an order, and he saw the change and took advantage of it.

"Tell the troops ahead not to kill these prisoners, just let them put down their weapons!"

“yes…”

After the order was taken, many soldiers of the United States rushed across the Bull River and threw away their weapons. Some were even more professional, holding white flags, and many died at the guns of their own people...

This is an unexpected situation, which is beneficial to the empire.

"Order the artillery troops to extend the firepower to the maximum extent and let the infantry prepare for charge!" Li Mengyang made such an order after shooting for half an hour.

“yes-tempt r-majesty!”

Obviously, the Empire's charge is ahead of schedule!

After receiving this order, the generals and soldiers were eager to try until...

Beep beep beep beep... The charge sounded! (To be continued...)
